The week travelled well
Lamine Yamal and Anthony Gordon scored against each other at Wembley, and Mayssa Baha, 15, became Barça Femení's youngest official scorer at Logroño.
Writing about Barça in English since 2009. One dispatch after each round of matches: five topics, the men's team and the Femení, nothing in between.
- 01SquadBarça's attackers kept scoring on international dutyLamine Yamal and Anthony Gordon scored on opposite sides at Wembley, and Dani Olmo, Raphinha and Karim Adeyemi all set up goals for their countries. It was a harder week for the club's under-21 internationals.
- 02FemeníA rotated Barça Femení won at Logroño, and a 15-year-old made historyBarça Femení won 2–0 away to Logroño United with a starting XI averaging 22, and Mayssa Baha, 15, became the youngest scorer in the women's team's official history. Aitana Bonmatí also played her first minutes of the season.
- 03La MasiaBarça Atlètic didn't miss their four internationalsBarça Atlètic beat Peña Sport, from Navarra, 4–0 with four players away on international duty and have still not conceded a league goal. It took patience against a five-man defence, and Shane Kluivert's arrival from the bench made the difference.
- 04TacticsBarça's early goals are covering careless defendingBarça have been ahead for more than three-quarters of their league minutes this season and behind for about ten. Most of the goals they have conceded came after they had already taken the lead.
- 05ClubThe board should publish its Babylon Park checksThe club's member delegates approved a 25-year licence for a family entertainment centre run by the indoor theme-park company Babylon Park at Camp Nou, the closest vote of the Assembly. The board says its compliance checks found nothing wrong, and it should publish them.
